Thanks katharnakh.
I am running into an issue with using the strict pragma. I 'Use strict' to start and define my arrays as:

(Toggle Plain Text)

my (@array1, @array2, @array3, @array4);

I am using strict since this is only a portion of my code.
The error I receive is 'Global symbol at "@array1" requires explicit package name.' I have:

foreach (1..4){
	push @{"a$_"}, $value;
}

I tried a few things but kept getting the same error. A few are tried:

foreach (1..4){
	push my(@{"a$_"}), $value;

foreach (1..4){
                my (@array1, @array2, @array3, @array4);
	push @{"a$_"}, $value;
}

I wanted to keep the strict pragma on. I did turn it off and it worked. Will that give me other issues down the road? I know when posting code, 'use strict' and 'use warnings' is important.
Thanks-

Thanks again-
